Ans. Click the “Forgot Password” option on the login page and follow the password reset instructions sent to your registered email address. You can also log in using your Registration Number and Date of Birth as an alternative.
Q3. What is the reporting time on my admit card, and is it the same as the exam start time?
Ans. The reporting time printed on your admit card is the time you must arrive at the exam centre. The exam start time is typically 30 minutes to 1 hour after the reporting time. Arriving after the reporting time may result in denial of entry into the examination hall.
Q4. What should I do if my name, photograph, or roll number is incorrect on the admit card?
Ans. Do not wait for exam day. Log in to the DigiAlm portal immediately and contact the NCL examination cell or helpdesk through the portal. Provide proof of your correct details and request a correction. NCL will typically issue a corrected admit card before the exam date.
Q5. The admit card has not been released yet. When will the NCL Various Post Admit Card 2026 be available?
Ans. As per the official timeline, the admit card was released on 26/06/2026. If you are reading this after that date and cannot download your admit card, verify that your application was successfully submitted and that you are using the correct login credentials. Contact NCL support if the portal still does not show your admit card.
Q6. Can I take a photocopy of my admit card instead of an original printout?
Ans. No. You must carry the original printed admit card. Photocopies are not accepted as they may be difficult to verify, and the exam centre may deny entry. Print your admit card on white A4 paper from a reliable printer.
Q7. What documents do I need to carry on exam day apart from my admit card?
Ans. Carry your printed admit card along with a valid government-issued photo identity such as Aadhaar, Voter ID, Passport, or Driving Licence. Additional documents (if any) will be specified in your admit card. Entry to the exam hall is not permitted without both your admit card and photo ID.
Q8. What if the DigiAlm portal is slow or not responding close to exam day?
Ans. Download and print your admit card at least 2-3 days before the exam date. Do not attempt to download on the day before or the morning of the exam, as portal traffic spikes significantly during these periods. Keep a printed backup copy in a safe place.
